Great little hotel, with very good service, located literally facing the blue mosque. Amazing view of the historic center. Unforgettable view. Worth every penny. more

The location is as good as it could possibly be for touring Istanbul. Bassilica Cistern, Haggia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Grand Bazaar, train stops are all a very short walk from the front door of the hotel. Beware that speakers across the street for "call to prayer" come with this location, so a room facing the hippodrome will offer great atmosphere... more

You cannot get a better location -- opposite the Blue Mosque in the Hippodrome - walk to the tram station, Hagya Sofia, Basilica Cistern, Topkapi Palace, Grand Bazar, etc. The breakfast was served on the rooftop,... more

It was a lovely stay and had great customer service.. the breakfast was great and had a fantastic view. The room was fine but the price of stay was a little expensive. more
